Definitions
- the present invention related to battery maintenance devices of the type used to maintain a storage battery. More specifically, the present invention relates to battery maintenance devices that include an electrical load which heats during use due to electrical current flowing through an electrical resistance.
- maintenance devices are known and used to maintain storage batteries. Examples of maintenance devices include battery testers and battery charger.
- Some battery maintenance devices include an electrical element such as an electrical load which generates heat during use. The heat is generated as an electrical current flows through the load and the resistance of the load causes heat to be generated from this current. If this heat becomes excessive, components of the battery maintenance device may be damaged. Therefore, techniques must be used to reduce the electrical current flow through the load and/or dissipate the generated heat.
- a battery maintenance device configured to maintain a storage battery.
- An electrical connection couples the battery maintenance device to the storage battery.
- Maintenance circuitry couples to the battery through the electrical connection and performs maintenance on the battery.
- the maintenance circuitry includes an electrical load configured to draw an electrical current from the battery. The electrical current causes the electrical load to heat.
- a phase change material is thermally coupled to the load. The phase change has a specific heat index which has a non-linear relationship to temperature to thereby reduce a rate of change in temperature of the electrical load.
- FIG. 1 is a simplified block diagram of battery maintenance circuitry including a phase change material.
- FIG. 2 is a perspective view of assembly 140 for use in containing a phase change material of FIG. 1 .
- FIG. 3 is a perspective view of a top cover of the assembly of FIG. 2 .
- FIG. 4 is a perspective view of lower enclosure 152 of the assembly of FIG. 2 .
- FIG. 5 is a graph of external temperature of the assembly of FIG. 2 versus time.
- Testers and chargers designed for testing batteries typically contain a load of some type, either DC to measure loaded voltage and bounce-back, or AC techniques as used in conductance testing.
- some types of battery testers have employed relatively small loads which draw on the order of about 1 ampere.
- These larger loads can be used to overcome substantial system noise, such as in an on-line UPS tester.
- the present invention provides battery maintenance circuitry with electrical connections configured to couple to a battery.
- the maintenance circuitry is configured to perform maintenance on the battery through the electrical connections.
- An electrical load or other heat producing element is included in the battery maintenance circuitry.
- a phase change material is thermally coupled to the heat producing element and is configured to change phase (i.e., solid to liquid, liquid to gas, solid to gas, etc.) during heating. This causes the phase change material to have a specific heat index which has a nonlinear relationship to temperature.
- FIG. 1 is simplified block diagram of battery maintenance circuitry 100 .
- battery maintenance circuitry 100 is configured to operate as a battery tester.
- the present invention is not limited to this specific type of battery maintenance circuitry 100 and may include, for example, battery chargers or other circuitry which performs maintenance on a battery and which includes a heat producing element.
- battery maintenance circuitry 100 is coupled to a storage battery 102 having terminals 104 and 106 .
- the storage battery may be any type of storage battery. In example specific configurations, the storage battery is for use in a vehicle or a standby power system.
- the vehicle may operate based on an internal combustion engine or may operate using electricity stored in storage battery 102 .
- the vehicle may be a purely electrical vehicle or may be a hybrid vehicle which is powered using both the battery and through an internal combustion engine.
- Battery maintenance circuitry 100 includes electrical connectors 108 which couple to terminals 104 and 106 .
- An electrical load 110 couples to the battery through connectors 108 and receives an electrical current I L from the battery 102 .
- An analog to digital converter 112 is coupled to the load 110 and is configured to digitize an analog voltage which appears across the load 110 due to the electrical current I L .
- the digitized voltage value as provided to microprocessor 114 .
- Microprocessor 114 operates in accordance with instructions stored in memory 116 .
- Microprocessor 114 is further configured to selectively couple the load 110 across the terminals 104 and 106 of the battery 102 using an optional switch 118 .
- Microprocessor 114 is configured to perform a battery test on the storage battery 102 by monitoring a voltage level which appears the battery terminals 104 and 106 (and therefore load 110 ) as the current I L is drawn from the battery. In this configuration, the load 110 is used to perform a “load test” on the storage battery 102 . Based upon the programming instructions stored in memory 116 , microprocessor 114 performs a test on the battery 102 and provides an output through output circuitry 120 . This output is a test resultant output is related to the test performed on the battery. The test may be provided to a local user, for example, through a display, or may be provided to a remote location or conveyed to electrical means to other circuitry.
- the battery maintenance circuitry 100 of FIG. 1 is illustrated as a battery load tester, the present invention is not limited to this particular test.
- the load 110 is used as a forcing function to selectively draw the current I L from the battery 102 .
- Connectors 108 are configured as Kelvin connectors and microprocessor 114 is configured to measure a dynamic parameter of the battery 102 .
- FIG. 1 illustrates a phase change material 122 thermally coupled to the heat producing element 110 .
- a phase change material has an ability to absorb large amounts of heat while it maintains a constant temperature. For example, a glass of ice water. The heat infusion of the water (the amount of heat required to change ice at 32 degrees to become water at 32 degrees) is approximately 80 times the specific heat of water (the amount of heat required to change the temperature of a quantity of water by one degree). In another words, for each unit of heat that is introduced into the ice, the ice will rise in temperature by one degree until it reaches the phase change temperature. At the phase change temperature, approximately 80 units of heat are required to change the temperature of the material. There are similar properties for the phase change that occurs in a liquid to gas transition, etc. For example, boiling water requires significantly more heat to produce steam at 212 degrees Fahrenheit from water at 212 degrees Fahrenheit than is required to heat the water one degree. Refrigeration cycle exploit this phenomenon.
- the present invention makes use of a phase change material in order reduce the heating of a heat producing element, such as element 110 , in battery maintenance circuitry 100 .
- the material is selected which has a phase change boundary that is above the maximum ambient operating temperature, but which is below the thermal rating of any components of the maintenance circuitry 100 , or physical comfort levels of an operator.
- paraffin wax is a phase change material with a transition from solid to liquid of approximately 130 degrees Fahrenheit, depending upon its formulation.
- the heat producing element 110 As the heat producing element 110 generates heat and the heat is transferred to the phase change material 122 , the heat energy largely remains in the material 122 to simply exists at a lower temperature. If the heat producing element 110 operates continuously, eventually all of the phase change material 122 will be converted across the phase change boundary and the temperature will begin to rise again.
- the battery maintenance circuitry 100 can be configure to have heat producing element 110 which will only intermittently produce heat. For example, the load applied to a battery 102 can be periodically removed. This allows the heat to be dissipated to the environment at a lower temperature.
- FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a phase change material assembly 140 which includes phase change material 122 therein.
- Assembly 140 can be formed of a metal such as diecast aluminum and filled with the phase change material 122 such as paraffin wax.
- FIGS. 3 and 4 are perspective interior views of a top cover 150 and lower enclosure 152 of assembly 140 .
- the top cover includes load resistors 154 , attached thereto.
- lower enclosure 152 includes a cavity 156 formed therein. This cavity 156 is filled with the phase change material 122 .
- This phase change material 122 should be placed into thermal contact with the heat producing element 110 .
- the heat producing element 110 comprises the load resistors 154 shown in FIG. 3 .
- the load resistors 154 include protrusions or fins 160 which increase the surface area of the load resistors 154 and thereby increase the thermal coupling between the resistors 154 and the phase change material 122 .
- FIG. 4 also illustrates fill holes 170 . These fill holes 170 can be used to fill the cavity 156 with the phase change material 122 following the assembly of the top cover 150 and the lower enclosure 152 of assembly 140 . After cavity 156 is filled through fill holes 170 , the fill holes can be sealed.
- FIG. 5 is a graph of temperature versus time as a current source is coupled to the electrical resistors 154 of assembly 140 .
- FIG. 5 show separate graphing lines for the top cover 150 and the lower enclosure 152 . As illustrate din FIG. 5 , the temperature at the external surfaces of the assembly 140 stabilize at a relatively low temperature.
- the battery maintenance circuitry 100 will cause the heat producing element 110 to generate heat. This heat will be transferred to and received by the phase change material 122 .
- the temperature of phase change material 122 is nonlinearly related to the heating of heat producing element 110 due to proportions of the phase change material 122 .
- the heat producing element 110 preferably produces heat only periodically to thereby allow the heat in the phase change material 122 to dissipate into the environment. If the phase change material 122 has changed phase, preferably the heat will be removed for a sufficient time to allow the phase change material 122 to return to its phase at a cooler temperature.
